Custom labels for inputs? Can you assign your own names for inputs?E.g. change it so that instead of default labels like "BD Player" and "Cable Box" it can say, "Wii", "Xbox", "WD HD", etc.?I've been to the Pioneer site, viewed the product page, downloaded the manual, read many comments here, yet I'm not seeing it mentioned (which should tell me it's not possible but I'd like to know for sure from a user).Thanks.

Thanks for the suggestion, Starsky. :)I've actually been scouring the manuals for the various models and it seems that the lowest model that offers custom input labelling is the Pioneer VSX-1020-K. It's within budget, barely, but now I'm wondering whether the money would be better spent on some Power Block dumbbells and getting into shape.Sweet entertainment system or 6-pack and guns.. hmm..Thanks again guys, appreciate the replies.And for anyone that missed it, the lowest model offering custom labels for inputs is the Pioneer VSX-1020-K. :) Thanks for the suggestion, Starsky. :)I've actually been scouring the manuals for the various models and it seems that the lowest model that offers custom input labelling is the Pioneer VSX-1020-K.

No, you cannot change the labels for the inputs. I think the only Pioneer non-Elite unit that can do that is the 1120.

I did some homework before I purchased the unit. Pioneer markets at least two versions of the BDP-150. An inexpensive version for the US market only and a more expensive one that plays all regions. If you do a google "shopping" search for the Pioneer BDP-150 you'll see what I mean. At the time, I suspected and the other responses confirm that Pioneer markets a PAL version as well. They probably market in all regions of the world. Why they use the same model number is anyone's guess. Seems to me it's causes unnecessary confusion.

Hey, I just checked mine out and you are able to switch the inputs with the button on the unit. I have mine hooked up to my PS3 and X-Box 360, so I generally only have one running at a time so it's not really an issue for me. But, I just turned them both on and it will default to the device plugged into input 1, but you can press the button on the unit and it will cycle through to input 2 and input 3. The only downside would be that you'd have to manually do it on the unit as this doesn't come with a remote. But, unless you're switching between them fairly often I don't see that it would really be an issue. Hey, I just checked mine out and you are able to switch the inputs with the button on the unit.

I purchased two complete sets of the remote controller and 3 slave units. Upon arrival I found that BOTH packages are the EXACT same device. Both control paddles will turn on/off any of the six total slave units. As you'll not upon receipt, on the paddle there is a small stick-um saying CH B on them, meaning they both will handle (probably) any number of slaves that are attuned to Channel B. I'd written in and asked Amazon if it is possible to get a controller that is tuned to other than CH B, and have not received a reply on that matter. So when you hit the #1 paddle toggle switch it will turn on ALL units that are the #1 remote. I purchased two complete sets of the remote controller and 3 slave units.

Tom, Like you, have a Samsung HD cable box from TW. Connected HDMI to my Pioneer Plasma. Problem I am having is when changing HD channels picture is scrambling for about 5-10 secs before coming in. Analog stations change without a problem, just in HD. I switched out the box twice, same problem. Had a techinician come over, he switched out the box again, same problem. Put the component connection and works fine. Tells me it's the monitor. Pioneer says that's ridiculous, it's the cable box. I have been reading numerous threads about this problem. It's the TW cable box, it does not have the proper software to support HDMI. You have to call TW up and complain and see if they will fix the problem. R

I am not using that setup so this is only theory. I am able to customize the buttons within each app I choose on my pc. The device itself is just a simple plug and play (think wireless mouse). No software comes with it so you have to use the app software to adjust the input buttons.As long as there is a "hotkey" setup in your preferences somewhere in the software you use there shouldn't be a problem. That said, as soon as I plugged mine into my pc the "dvd" media buttons worked fine in 3 different "dvd" apps I use. Again, I've never even seen what you have in person but I would not think there would be a problem as it basically takes over your normal keypad. I am not using that setup so this is only theory.

Use the INPUT ASSIGN menu to select the proper input type for each source name noting the HDMI will take priority if multiple inputs are assigned to the same source name.For more general information refer to ---> http://www.avsforum.com/forum/90-receivers-amps-processors/1465528-official-2013-denon-e-series-x-series-avr-model-owner-s-thread-faq.html#post23134210"JD" (aka jdsmoothie)AVScience.com (authorized Denon dealer)

Yes, Title, artist and sometimes album. i sometimes rename a song( for various reasons) and sometimes that edited name is displayed and sometimes the original name comes up. I also never know what order they'll be played in, after they are loaded, which is okay Bill

When I power on the receiver is on the hdmi input that was set when I turned it off. I don't know if you can make one input the default when powered on? But would like to know if you can...I use the iPad Pioneer iControlav app which makes switching the input and controlling the receiver very easy.

No you cannot assign your own, as it is not a sampler . You can only slightly tweek the preset sounds.

Hi Ryan, I don't keep the labels on the DVDs. I buy the cheapest. What I have lately is not HP brand. The way to determine is to look for a display that shows the disk from top to bottom. That's what I try to do. Mine are all the way but don't know the brand. Rita

You can customize what buttons you want.. I have a button for xBox, Wii, Netflix, Roku and Fios for example. It's relatively easy to set up on line and then it's a simple sync. I really like it.

I used the software to program alpha tags. What I'm sad about is that I haven't figured out a way to choose between the alpha tags or the frequency for presets. Either I always show the alphas, or I always show the frequency. I want to be able to do it on the fly, easily, but I haven't figured out how to display the preset's frequency when my view is preset name.

Can you post the receiver id#? I tried purchasing a direct tv receiver and could not activate it. I was told to call Direct TV and give them the id# so they could verify the activation before I purchase. thank you

Yes, my package contained labels, a stomper, and most importantly, a CDRom with the program. However, I am sorry, I am not 100% positive about exactly which labels were included. That information wasn't of prime concern to me at the time because I buy those labels separately and in abundance so I always have many blank labels on hand, therefore their inclusion in the box wasn't on the forefront of my concern. I bought the item for the ROM to replace my existing and outdated one for a new installation. I hope this helps.

Yes and no. It doesn't have that functionality built in. But on my phone (android kk) I can name individual bluetooth devices. I have mine named main stereo and I can connect to it just fine. so i guess it depends on your os.
